    Hey ss just a idea to help spread the love of silver good way to get your mates to start collecting silver if you have any friends with a change hoard and not doing anything with it really just chucking there change in jar as there savings lol . What I did is told them to give me 32$ in change all silver for a one oz silver coin like a maple of the current year to make it easier for them to store . I've only started stacking for a month and done this with a few friends surprisingly I ended up with most of there change with a nice 4$ premium on all my coins I gave them . Good way to spread the silver value

    I'm slightly to paranoid to be letting non-stackers know I hold PM's. Oh and I don't know any stackers, so that's everyone.

    let them keep their junk fiat coins...

    Tell them if they have an old coin collection, jewellery or ever find round 50s from 1966 that you will by them for a fair price in exchange for YOUR change hoard.

    Not bragging about anything I told my friends exactly what I paid with my receipt and showed them all prices on the net and told them there wasting time with holding on to lose change in bulk and showed them a better way most only had like 50 $ in 5 10 2o cent pieces one silver oz coin in capsule is a pretty decent price for a shit load of coins I think this is a good way to make people look at the jars full of coins in a different way and all my mates that did trade me for a coin will prob make a profile on this forum to see what else they like so its all positive with me I think

    think that's pretty fair

    And pretty soon your mates will be telling their mates and girlfriends and wives and whatever and a great many people you may not even know will know you hold PMs.

    this is a good point I had to show them the graph first and told them that price dose change over the years and months but did remind them that if the keep building that jar over years and years of the fiat change the use for them will stay obsolete to keeping a few silver coins for years and years

    The people who want to learn - I advise to read the book and make decision by themselves.
    No one approached me asking about good place to buy metals after I gave advise. That's why I don't care what other people do - I'm not consultant, free assistant, psychologist or anything like this.

    the less crowd has the more I can buy at low levels or pass to my offspring.

    ture would increase the chance of getting robbed or set up but I think I'm pretty adapted to how to keep my things out of sight and out of mind from everyone bad
    and bad things happen to bad people alot quicker than they think

    I suspect you might be considerably younger than I am, but I learned many years ago that most people don't want to talk about money unless the discussion is how to spend it
    These days I just keep my mouth shut and listen in on discussions about the latest mobile phone or TV or car or whatever

    It's none of my business how others manage their finances and none of their business how I manage mine

    I talked to some mates about stacking/economy etc. was laughed at pretty hard. Keep to myself now, told them all I sold out 12 months ago. Fad is now forgotten, bliss.

    I occasionally send some videos and articles to some folks. Mainly only few people. I know someone who is increasing its stack.

    My father on the other hand is quite sceptical. He still quite "believes" in US $. Always telling me, look it will increase it'v value. :) It was once worth more than Euro. That was many years ago. I've became sceptical whether this would happened again. :)

    Most other people I know don't have money to buy it/don't invest in anything or "invest" (to avoid yet another debate whether that is investment or not).

    I do hope that more people will realize the potential of PMs. Beside girls. ;)
